EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a Women's hockey match between Surrey and Sussex teams in the early 1900s. Dressed in their respective colors, the sportswomen display an intense focus and determination as they take to the field, their expressions reflecting the competitive spirit of the game. The Edwardian era setting is evident in the elegant attire of the players, who wear long skirts and blouses, accessorized with collars and ties. The lush green grass of the ground stretches out before them, providing the perfect backdrop for this historic moment in Women's sports history. The match, which took place in 1902, marked an important step forward for Women's hockey in England and Britain, as county matches like this one helped to establish the game as a popular and respected sport for women. The players' dedication and passion for the game are palpable, making this photograph a fascinating glimpse into the past and a testament to the enduring spirit of Women's hockey.
